Welcome!

What do you get when you cross a Dietitian with a Baker? Me! I am a Registered Dietitian from Cincinnati, Ohio. Oddly enough, I also have a Certificate of Baking and Pastry! While I like to eat natural, nutritious foods about 80% of the time, I don't see anything wrong with the occasional indulgence.Potassium Tube is a place where I will share healthy recipes, cooking and baking tips, and other things that inspire me to inspire you!

Make-Me-Laugh Monday!

Mondays can be dull, depressing, boring, and looong. That's why I have decided to create "Make-Me-Laugh Monday!" I absolutely love comedians and would marry Demetri Martin in a heartbeat if I could. I recently discovered that Comedy Central has an entire website dedicated to Stand-up comedy; can I get an Amen?! The website is simply jokes.com. I can't help but think that someone else probably owned that domain name and made a killing off of it when Comedy Central decided they wanted it. I wish I would have thought to buy it in the past! Isn't that always the way? Like when the Snuggie came out, weren't you like, "Why didn't I think of that?!" Yeah, I wasn't either. But with other inventions that really do make it big, I always wonder why I didn't think of it first. Oh well, that's beside the point. Today isn't about beating yourself up for not inventing a multi-million dollar product; it's about celebrating Mondays, laughter, and my favorite comedian Demetri Martin!

Oh and by the way, my mom owns a snuggie. And that's no joke!

Here I am sporting that fine piece of fabric!

So to kick things off here are a few jokes from my future husband:

"I like fruit baskets because a fruit basket enables you to mail somebody fruit without appearing insane."

"I think they named oranges before they named carrots...

'What are these?'

'Those are orange: oranges.'

'What about these?'

'Oh, sh*t. Long pointies?'

Well, there you have it- a little food humor for your Monday. If you have any other jokes, great websites, or hilarious videos, I would love to hear about them! Now go and eat a long pointy!
